Some SAP Sybase IQ data types are
compatible with Adaptive Server data
types.
Here are the general rules:
- SAP Sybase IQ character
string types accept any Adaptive Server
character string type.
- SAP Sybase IQ exact numeric
types accept any Adaptive Server number
types. However, if the SAP Sybase IQ data
type holds a smaller amount of data than the Adaptive Server type, the value converts to a NULL (for
example, when inserting data from the underlying database into tables).
- SAP Sybase IQ date/time
types accept any Adaptive Server date/time
types.
